I've been experiencing this weird tightness in my neck along with a sore throat that comes and goes. It's been almost a week now, and I'm not sure what could be causing it. Sometimes I feel it pretty strongly, and other times it's not there at all. What could be going on?

Question

I'm worried because I was using an earbud to clean my ear, and some of the cotton got stuck inside. I managed to pull some of it out with tweezers, but not all of it. Then I tried putting a couple of drops of Soliwax in my ear. Will this help, or should I be doing something else to ensure my ear is okay?

Question

I've been on a course of Derinide AQ and Defza, and during the treatment, I got my sense of smell back. But now it's gone again, and sometimes there's this weird odor in my nose. It's been about 20 days using this nasal spray. Is there a permanent solution for this? Will I ever get my sense of smell back? What do you suggest?

Question

I've been feeling this full pain behind my upper lip and front teeth, and I've noticed that half of my right nasal passage feels congested. But here's the thingI'm not showing any other cold symptoms. My nose isn't runny, there's no drainage, and I'm not coughing or dealing with a sore throat. I feel a little pain starting to go towards my ears, but there's no pain above my middle nose and nothing's going on in that creek area. Any idea what might be going on with me?
